点评:We have been to Glastonbudget Festival for the last three years, and we've always enjoyed it. Great bands, vibe, and location (weather not so!).
We'd purchased day tickets everytime as we weren't able to go on the weekdays. We also added on camping for one night at an extra £15 approx which was ideal for us.
This year, it being the 20th Anniversary of the festival, we wanted to book day tickets for Saturday & Sunday, and add camping for both nights. Sadly, the options for buying day tickets and adding camping seems to be absent this time.
I took the liberty of emailing the organisers to find out why this was the case, and they responded saying that the option of camping with day tickets is no longer available!!? Their reasoning for this is they wanted people to buy the weekend tickets so we get the full experience of the festival, and for a price of £160 Inc Camping etc.
The price isn't really the issue and is quite good for the whole event, but we couldn't go on the Thursday & Friday because of work, so we would be paying extra and missing out on two days.
So, it would seem that day ticket festival goers are being treated unfairly by the organisers, and as a result, we won't be going this year, and infact, not ever again if this is the way they want to do things from now on.
Sad, as I've recommended this festival to many people, but not anymore. Sorry.
翻译:我们已经参加了三年的 Glastonbudget 音乐节,我们一直都很喜欢。很棒的乐队、氛围和地点(天气不太好!)。
我们每次都购买日票,因为我们无法在工作日去。我们还额外支付了约 15 英镑,增加了一晚露营,这对我们来说非常理想。
今年是音乐节的 20 周年,我们想预订周六和周日的日票,并增加两晚的露营。遗憾的是,这次似乎没有购买日票和增加露营的选项。
我冒昧地给组织者发了一封电子邮件,想知道为什么会这样,他们回复说,使用日票露营的选项不再可用!?他们这样做的理由是,他们希望人们购买周末票,这样我们就能以 160 英镑的价格(包括露营等)充分体验节日。
价格并不是真正的问题,对于整个活动来说,价格相当不错,但我们因为工作原因不能在周四和周五去,所以我们要额外付费,而且会错过两天。
因此,似乎日票节日观众受到了组织者的不公平对待,因此,我们今年不会去,事实上,如果他们从现在开始想这样做的话,我们永远不会再去。
很遗憾,我已经向很多人推荐过这个节日,但现在不会了。对不起。
